He’s still likely to miss the Leicester game though.
Mohamed Salah has spoken for the first time
since news broke on Saturday that he has been infected by the
COVID-19 virus. The attacker is described as having mild symptoms
of the virus, and has been forced into self-isolation away from the
Egyptian national team while on international duty. Salah released
a short statement on Twitter:
I’d like to thank everyone for the
supportive messages and well wishes. I’m confident I’ll be back on
the field soon— Mohamed Salah (@MoSalah) November 17, 2020
How soon, you ask? Mo Salah is still likely to miss the the
Leicester game as the Premier League’s coronavirus protocols
dictates that a player must quarantine for 10 days after a positive
test. On the tenth day, they get retested, and if the result is
negative, the player is cleared to return to training.

Assuming Mo got his positive test on Friday or Saturday, he
wouldn’t have cleared the 10-day requirement for the Leicester
game. He could however, return in time for these fixtures – at home
against Atalanta in the Champions
League next Wednesday or the trip to Brighton next weekend.
